Lewis River Falls

Lower Falls

Easy

7 miles round trip

500 feet elevation gain

Open all year

Use: hikers, horses, bicycles

The Lewis River thunders over three colossal falls along this riverbank path. Because a paved road parallels the route, it’s easy to plan a car (or bicycle) shuttle and hike the 3.5-mile trail one way—but the path’s pretty enough you probably won’t mind hiking it twice.

Drive Interstate . . .
